Browns owner Jimmy Haslam said this week that the team has a “big list” of private workouts planned with quarterbacks ahead of next month’s draft and they are reportedly checking another name off that list on Wednesday.

The private workouts for Bortles, Carr and the others on the list that the team minimize the importance of any pro day workouts that General Manager Ray Farmer, coach Mike Pettine and others may have missed earlier in the pre-draft process. They also take away some of the guessing game that Farmer said he planned to play about the team’s intentions at quarterback during the draft.

The Browns have the fourth and 26th picks in the first round next month and 10 picks overall, at least one of which they’re expected to use on a quarterback.

You know what would be fun? Since everyone is trying to guess which player will be selected by which NFL team, we should make up a draft… assigning players to each team based on our best guess of who that team will actually take. That would be fun. Of course we would never be able to agree! What a lark!

I hope the Browns get Manzel. I think he is going to be a unique talent and the Browns fans deserve some W’s on a big scale.
